maybe you are sold on the idea of probiotics. Great! But hold up a pretty little minute.

Here are the TWO MAIN things you need to look for in a good probiotic:

Multiple strains. Don't buy something that has just one strain. At least five to seven different strains of bacteria are preferred. (You will find the strains of bacteria listed on the back label.)

Multiple billion CFUs. Probiotics in the "Millions" of CFUs are weak and not worth your money. Five billion CFUs or 10 billion CFUs might be ok to start, but I recommend at least 20 billion CFUs. Therapeutic doses can range from 50-100 billion CFUs. Starting lower is ok, though.

When it comes to probiotics, some is better than none. So don't get overwhelmed with all of the products on the market and freeze with indecision. Buy something and try it out.

The really cool science behind all of this is that certain strains can help with certain symptoms. This is the future of medicine, in my opinion.

So, commit to taking something daily and see how you feel.

Maybe. Just maybe, you aren't convinced yet. Did you know...

Early findings showcase that probiotics can help enhance mood, improve allergies, and regulate constipation/diarrhea (Yes! It helps with both of these problems. Fascinating, no?).

But that's not all. Research also shows probiotics can help with weight loss, anxiety, depression, lactose intolerance, and so much more.

Probiotics are now am INTEGRAL part of our family's health protocol. Yes, I give my kids probiotics. Yes, I just said health protocol. Serous business around here, folks.

And, speaking of serious business. One: please don't forget to consult your doctor. Two: I would never tell you what to do, but if your doctor isn't keen on probiotics, you might want to consider getting a second opinion.

I am not a doctor, but I do believe in the power of probiotics. And I do want to help you FEEL SO GOOD.
